Let me know when Canada steps up and solves it then. Or better yet, Israel seeing how it's on their border and just took delivery of F-35, 35, 35s.

It was titled A New Beginning. It was applauded by the globalist elite and certainly gave comfort to the liberal forces that participated in the Arab Spring and the Green Revolution. In of itself it was not a bad speech but the major defect is that Obama believed his own rhetoric was powerful enough to usher in a new era of freedom through words and a draw down of the American presence. This was horribly naive and it resulted in the crushing of moderates across the region. Be it the Green Revolution, the overthrow of Mubarak, the overthrow of Gaddafi, Turkey, Iraq, you name it the absence of western power and support allowed the worst actors to further tighten their grips on their oppressed populations. The Cairo speech lit the fuse for great hope but the absence of resolve turned that hope into genocide.HughFreakingDillon said:

Whatever happened to allowing people to choose their destiny rather than have it provided for them? Democracy is messy. But you're okay with continued support of corrupt dictators and governments as long as it serves Israel's purpose. I get, get, get that. Let me know when the first waves of Canadian troops land to stop the genocide. I'll be sure to thank you for your contribution.BS44325 said:

This was horribly naive and it resulted in the crushing of moderates across the region.

Because there's a Canadian on these boards who harps on the failure of this US policy or that US policy and thinks the best policy is for the US to occupy Iraq for 50 years with170,000 troops and get involved in Syria and Yemen with failed neocon policy.

If you invade a volatile country and tell the to-be-invaded population you're there to make it better, it's a safe assumption that there'll actually be an initial spike in aggression and volatility prior to the potential for stability (though in my opinion the better option is not to invade a volatile country, but that's another conversation). Once the country is invaded, it's the invaders' obligation to help keep that aggression in check to help the population decrease the level of volatility, and pursue that stability. If sufficient assistance doesn't come (or doesn't stay for long enough), nefarious actors will inevitably recognize an opportunity to seize power for themselves. This is the well-documented power vacuum which created groups like IS, and whether you're from Canada or Kazakstan doesn't change the fact that invading a country to bring stability should deliver you the moral obligation to see that through. Premature full or partial retreat can (and did) lead to the usurping of power by immoral opportunists and create situations more dire than the ones the invasion itself aspired to prevent. FWIW - this doesn't mean Bush gets a free pass in my books, just that with the cards that were dealt to Obama, I'm not certain he played the right hand.Halifax2TheMax said:

I think most of us are aware of what is happening in Syria and the medias coverage of it. My guess is we all have differing opinions of what is going on.

Ha ha you finally get it as long as we support Israel there will never be peace in the region ever ! Did you really think Obama could bring peace to the region in only 8 yrs how long have they been feuding over there ? And only Carter was able to bring both sides to a negotiating table so tell us how long do you think it will take the Bafoon administration to bring total peace there ?BS44325 said:
ahhh...I get it now...it's about Israel.Halifax2TheMax said:
Whatever happened to allowing people to choose their destiny rather than have it provided for them? Democracy is messy. But you're okay with continued support of corrupt dictators and governments as long as it serves Israel's purpose. I get, get, get that. Let me know when the first waves of Canadian troops land to stop the genocide. I'll be sure to thank you for your contribution.BS44325 said:
It was titled A New Beginning. It was applauded by the globalist elite and certainly gave comfort to the liberal forces that participated in the Arab Spring and the Green Revolution. In of itself it was not a bad speech but the major defect is that Obama believed his own rhetoric was powerful enough to usher in a new era of freedom through words and a draw down of the American presence. This was horribly naive and it resulted in the crushing of moderates across the region. Be it the Green Revolution, the overthrow of Mubarak, the overthrow of Gaddafi, Turkey, Iraq, you name it the absence of western power and support allowed the worst actors to further tighten their grips on their oppressed populations. The Cairo speech lit the fuse for great hope but the absence of resolve turned that hope into genocide.HughFreakingDillon said:

Please enlighten me as to what was unstable about Iraq prior to 2003. And for how long is the US now committed to Iraq? Forever?
And sorry, I'm not buying it and I don't own it as I was against it from well before it started. Canada can pick up where we left off. Consider it as the US having softened it up for you to make it easier.

LEAKERS!!!!! Did he say LEAKERS???JC29856 said:Shhh....
“All signs point to leaking, not hacking. If hacking were involved, the National Security Agency would know it – and know both sender and recipient.
In short, since leaking requires physically removing data – on a thumb drive, for example …
NSA is able to identify both the sender and recipient when hacking is involved….The bottom line is that the NSA would know where and how any “hacked” emails from the DNC, HRC or any other servers were routed through the network…
The various ways in which usually anonymous spokespeople for U.S. intelligence agencies are equivocating – saying things like “our best guess” or “our opinion” or “our estimate” etc. – shows that the emails alleged to have been “hacked” cannot be traced across the network. Given NSA’s extensive trace capability, we conclude that DNC and HRC servers alleged to have been hacked were, in fact, not hacked.
The evidence that should be there is absent; otherwise, it would surely be brought forward, since this could be done without any danger to sources and methods. Thus, we conclude that the emails were leaked by an insider – as was the case with Edward Snowden and Chelsea Manning. Such an insider could be anyone in a government department or agency with access to NSA databases, or perhaps someone within the DNC.” (“US Intel Vets Dispute Russia Hacking Claims“, Consortium News)
Bottom line: Leaked not hacked. Thus, the MSM “Putin did it” version = Bullshit.

...and part of the goal here was to make sure that we did not do the work of the leakers for them by raising more and more questions about the integrity of the election...Post edited by JC29856 on0
